Perhaps ...

don't know anything about flight attendant's union but I have two neighbors who are flight attendants and they absolutely hate the mask requirement. 100% agree with you on the schools and teachers' unions.

Going to be interesting. Airline executives are pushing hard for the mandate to be lifted - sounds like maybe the union still wants them. Which one donated more money?
